The Denver Intensity of Spontaneous Facial Action (DISFA) dataset consists of 27 videos of 4844 frames each, with 130,788 images in total. Action unit annotations are on different levels of intensity, which are ignored in the following experiments and action units are either set or unset. DISFA was selected from a wider range of databases popular in the field of facial expression recognition because of the high number of smiles, i.e. action unit 12. In detail, 30,792 have this action unit set, 82,176 images have some action unit(s) set and 48,612 images have no action unit(s) set at all.

The BP4D-Spontaneous dataset is a 3D video database of spontaneous facial expressions in a diverse group of young adults. Well-validated emotion inductions were used to elicit expressions of emotion and paralinguistic communication. Frame-level ground-truth for facial actions was obtained using the Facial Action Coding System. Facial features were tracked in both 2D and 3D domains using both person-specific and generic approaches. The database includes forty-one participants (23 women, 18 men). They were 18 – 29 years of age; 11 were Asian, 6 were African-American, 4 were Hispanic, and 20 were Euro-American. An emotion elicitation protocol was designed to elicit emotions of participants effectively. Eight tasks were covered with an interview process and a series of activities to elicit eight emotions. The database is structured by participants. Each participant is associated with 8 tasks. For each task, there are both 3D and 2D videos. As well, the Metadata include manually annotated

The CANDOR corpus is a large, novel, multimodal corpus of 1,656 recorded conversations in spoken English. This 7+ million word, 850 hour corpus totals over 1TB of audio, video, and transcripts, with moment-to-moment measures of vocal, facial, and semantic expression, along with an extensive survey of speaker post conversation reflections.

High-resolution thermal infrared face database with extensive manual annotations, introduced by Kopaczka et al, 2018. Useful for training algoeithms for image processing tasks as well as facial expression recognition. The full database itself, all annotations and the complete source code are freely available from the authors for research purposes at https://github.com/marcinkopaczka/thermalfaceproject.
